GudgeonPin/Piston Pin
and mostly in American nomenclature known as Wrist Pins, are an integral part of all types
of internal combustion engines, Otto or Diesel types, 2 strokes and 4 types. Gudgeon pin
is a component to fasten the Piston and the Connecting Rod severally and securely, but at
the same time permitting enough play for the free angular movement of the Connecting Rod
according to the requirements of kinematics of the Engine assembly.
They are very essential for the carefree running of the engine and it depends upon the
quality of the Gudgeon Pin whether an engine will live upto its designed life period of
operation. The power generated by the combustion of inflammed gases is harnessed by the
Piston and transmitted further to the Crank shaft via Piston rod, in which the Gudgeon Pin
plays a vital pivotal role.
Most of the Gudgeon Pins are hollow cylinders made out of special alloy
steels having highly polished and hard outersurface to bear the wear and tear due to the
to and fro motion of the Piston shaft.
Gudgeon Pins are used in Scooters, Motorcycles, Mopeds, Cars, Lorries, Trucks,
Locomotives, Tractors, Marine Engines, Refrigeration Compressors etc.
Infact if there is a Piston, a Piston Pin is always there. Gudgeon Pins/Piston Pins are
also used for overhauling of old engines. Every time overhauling of an engine is done it
is advisable to change the Gudgeon Pin set so that such a vital part is not set out to an
uncalculated risk of breaking while the engine is running.
